Overview
William H. Macy plays Bernie Lootz, a man with chronic bad luck that quickly spreads to those around him. His ability to give bad luck to others lands him a job at a casino, where he spoils the winning streaks of gamblers. But when he meets and falls in love with waitress Natalie (Maria Bello), his luck turns good and all hell breaks loose.

Alec Baldwin was on Letterman last week talking about this movie, and even though it's a contemporary movie, it's set in something like the 50's and 60's Vegas, where the casino owners were thugs who had to beat people up regularly. Alec, of course, plays one of those guys.

I like Alec Baldwin, I find him very entertainign in interviews.
I missed this one though, shame.
I think this has the makings of a really good movie.
